| I love this! Your others are very good also, but I particularly like everything about this one - how the canvas is filled (composition), the background (gorgeous!) and the placement and colors of the sparrows. I hope you have the opportunity to exhibit and show this because it's a real treat for the viewer's eyes. Bravo! |

You have picked up right where you left off with this painting J Ramesh.
Great background work and great subject matter. Who doesn't love birds!

Ramesh.
This was the first painting they published in the 6 page spread in International Artist.
I remember thinking then that your background seems different compared to your usual. This was a good decision with so many birds in the painting and very appealing also, it has allot of broken color and blended more than you usually do. Great compostion and negative space with scattered vague seed shafts.
Personally I like more black around the birds eyes, like the bird at the top, the upper right corner seems a little to bare? Maybe even a darker tone like the opposite corner would have been enough to balance it better?
I would like to see a close up of one of the little birds to see your stroke work. It is amazing to me how you do this all freehand and almost never look back to change a thing. I also love your stories with your paintings this one was highlighted by the thoughts of Singapore. It's a blessings to see your paintings and hear your stories.
Keep your Passion Alive and keep 'your' stories coming. |

Your close up blows me away even more J Ramesh.
I love this style of painting. You know I'm going to try
and copy this style don't you? Hopefully I can come close.
Thanks for showing the close up my friend,

| The intention of this style is, a painting should show paints, brush marks etc. It should not look like a photograph. |

| WOW, I just finished reading your article.... Everyone should buy the International Artist magazine and read JRamesh's article... there is a wonderful poetry about your writing that is as wonderful as your paintings! The tiger in the article is so beautiful and powerful... and I never realized what an accomplished artist and photographer you are, I just liked what you posted, no wonder! It's an honor to feel as if I know you. I know I am gushing, sorry... so cool to have met you this way, I really loved that landscape you did too, have you done anymore? |
